Obama Wanted Families to Discuss Gun Control Over Thanksgiving Dinner

It’s that time of year when people spend hours stuck on interstates, standing in terminally long snail-paced lines of the TSA where grim-faced reapers feel you up and pat you down before you board a plane only to endure hours of the screaming kid behind you, kicking you in the back, while you stare down toward your feet counting to 10, for the gazillionth time, only to be gazing down upon the crown of the reclining self-centered jerk ahead of you....

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Right? When we all gather together as families to embrace one another, catch up on the events of the passing year, stuff our faces in gluttony and hunker down around the table to discuss gun control.

“As people sitting around the Thanksgiving table talking about these issues [gun-control] as they should, and I’m sure they will all across the country, I hope that’s a question that will be raised and asked by members around the table.”

Umm…kinda intended to catch up on family stuff, kids’ accomplishments, work, and all that, but sure, we can move on to lighter conversation; the pre-apocalyptic horror of our time, climate change, talk about ISIS and the whole refugee nightmare, Common Core, how awesome Obamacare is, and how amazing the recovering economy is considering half of us at the dinner table are unemployed, and of course we can touch on the topic of the 2nd Amendment.

Good times!

Give it a rest.

If ever there was a time to take a moment to breathe deep, count our blessings, rejoice as families, it is most certainly this Thanksgiving.

We stand on the brink of a World War with a president leading us down a wrong path.

So yes, discuss all those topics if you wish, and come away from your family gathering at the table believing deeply that America is still great; we are strong, we are free, and we are brave, and no matter what Obama and his goons try to say or do to this country, America will live to see plenty more Thanksgiving Days.
